Samsung Galaxy Note 510 (Note 8.0) launched in India

At this year’s Mobile World Congress (MWC), Samsung went on to announce its Galaxy Note 8.0 with calling capability and today, the Korean giant has announced the launch if the device as the Samsung Galaxy Note 510 for India.

The Galaxy Note 510 arrives with an 8 inch TFT Capacitive display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels while being powered by a 1.6 GHz quad-core processor coupled with 2 GB of RAM. The Note 510 will be available in two storage options viz. 16 GB and 32 GB which can be expandable to up to 64 GB using a microSD card.

Samsung has packed in a 5 MP rear facing camera on the back of the Galaxy Note 510 while a 1.3 MP front camera for video chats has been included. The device runs on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean out-of-the-box.

The Note 510 also has the Samsung S-Pen which helps to increase everyday usability. Removing the S-Pen from the device will automatically launch innovative features such as Pen Detection that will suggest adapted menus. With the advanced Air View, the S-Pen needs only to hover over the screen to see previews of the files or application without even having to open it. Users will now be able to control the capacitive back and menu buttons using the S-Pen on Note 8.0 too.

Though Samsung has announced the device, it didn’t share any information as to when prospective buyers will be able to buy the Note 510 or how much they will need to shell out for it. We are still waiting for a word from Sammy and will update you once we have more details on it.
